Session Summary

Capture everything from the current session (Claude Code or Codex) and save it to the Obsidian vault.

When to Use

• At the end of any Claude Code session
• When you want to preserve context for future reference
• Before switching tasks or closing a session

Process

1. Gather Session Metadata

Run these commands to collect context:

# Current date
date +%Y-%m-%d

# Git branch
git branch --show-current 2>/dev/null || echo "no-branch"

# Project name (directory name)
basename "$PWD"

# Short session identifier (timestamp-based)
date +%H%M%S

# Detect agent and get session ID for resume
# Claude Code sets CLAUDECODE=1; Codex sets CODEX_THREAD_ID
if [ -n "$CLAUDECODE" ]; then
  echo "agent=claude-code"
  SESSION_ID=$(tail -100 ~/.claude/history.jsonl 2>/dev/null \
    | python3 -c "import sys,json; ids=[json.loads(l).get('sessionId','') for l in sys.stdin if 'sessionId' in l]; print(ids[-1] if ids else 'unknown')" 2>/dev/null)
  echo "session_id=${SESSION_ID}"
  echo "resume=claude --resume ${SESSION_ID}"
elif [ -n "$CODEX_THREAD_ID" ]; then
  echo "agent=codex"
  echo "session_id=${CODEX_THREAD_ID}"
  echo "resume=codex resume ${CODEX_THREAD_ID}"
  echo "resume_exec=codex exec resume ${CODEX_THREAD_ID} \"<prompt>\""
else
  echo "agent=unknown"
  echo "session_id=unknown"
fi

2. Summarize the Session

Review the entire conversation and extract:

• What was discussed: High-level summary of the session topic
• Key decisions: Technical choices made and why
• Changes made: Files created, modified, or deleted
• Questions raised: Open questions or clarifications needed
• Follow-ups: Next steps, TODOs, deferred work

3. Write to Obsidian Vault

Save to: $OBSIDIAN_VAULT/Sessions/

Before saving, verify and prepare the target directory:

[ -n "$OBSIDIAN_VAULT" ] || { echo "OBSIDIAN_VAULT is not set"; exit 1; }
mkdir -p "$OBSIDIAN_VAULT/Sessions"

Requires: OBSIDIAN_VAULT environment variable. Set it in ~/.zshrc.local:

# 00-env
export OBSIDIAN_VAULT="$HOME/Documents/Obsidian Vault"

If unset, abort and ask the user to configure it.

File name format: YYYY-MM-DD-<branch>-<time>.md

Example: 2026-02-18-main-143022.md

## Summary

<1-3 sentence overview of what was accomplished>

## What Was Discussed

<Bullet points of topics covered in the session>

## Key Decisions

<Technical choices made, with brief rationale>
- **Decision**: Why

- `path/to/file` — what changed and why

## Questions & Clarifications

<Open questions or things that needed clarification>

Tips

• Be concise but complete — future-you needs enough context to resume quickly
• Include file paths for any code that was changed
• Capture the "why" behind decisions, not just the "what"
• If no git branch exists, use the project/directory name instead
